CVE-2026-45772 npm PATCH GHSA Monitor

Turborepo is a high-performance build system for JavaScript and TypeScript codebases. From 1.1.0 to before 2.9.14, Turborepo can be vulnerable to arbitrary code execution when run in untrusted repositories that contain malicious Yarn configuration. In affected versions, package manager detection executed yarn --version from the project directory, which could cause Yarn to load and execute a project-controlled yarnPath from .yarnrc.yml. An attacker who controls repository contents could cause code execution when a user or CI system runs affected turbo, @turbo/codemod, or @turbo/workspace conversion commands. This vulnerability is fixed in 2.9.14.

CVE-2026-7309 MEDIUM This Month

OpenShift Container Platform build system allows authenticated users with the edit ClusterRole to inject arbitrary environment variables into docker-build containers via the buildconfigs/instantiate API, enabling information disclosure attacks such as build traffic interception through LD_PRELOAD or http_proxy manipulation. This represents an incomplete remediation of a prior vulnerability, affecting confidentiality of sensitive build data with CVSS 4.3 (network-accessible, low complexity, authenticated). No public exploit code or active exploitation has been confirmed at the time of analysis.

CVE-2026-35368 Cargo HIGH GHSA This Week

Privilege escalation to root in uutils coreutils chroot utility allows low-privileged local attackers with write access to the chroot target directory to execute arbitrary code via malicious NSS module injection. The vulnerability triggers when --userspec option causes getpwnam() to load attacker-controlled shared libraries from the new root before dropping privileges, enabling container escape or full system compromise on glibc-based systems. CVSS 7.8 with Scope Changed indicates host compromise from containerized environments. SSVC framework confirms POC availability and total technical impact, though exploitation requires specific configuration (writable NEWROOT) and is not automatable.

CVE-2026-35603 npm MEDIUM PATCH GHSA This Month

Claude Code prior to version 2.1.75 on Windows allows low-privileged local users to execute arbitrary code by placing a malicious configuration file in an unprotected shared directory (C:\ProgramData\ClaudeCode\managed-settings.json). The vulnerability exploits the default writability of ProgramData to non-administrative users and the absence of directory ownership validation, enabling privilege escalation or lateral impact when a victim user subsequently launches the application. This requires local system access and user interaction (launching Claude Code), limiting real-world impact to shared multi-user systems.

Untrusted DLL search path vulnerability in Yubico libfido2 before 1.17.0, python-fido2 before 2.2.0, and yubikey-manager before 5.9.1 allows local attackers to achieve privilege escalation or code execution by placing a malicious DLL in a directory searched before the legitimate library location. The vulnerability requires local access and high complexity conditions but affects three widely-used FIDO2 authentication libraries; no public exploit code identified at time of analysis.

Arbitrary code execution in Adobe FrameMaker 2022.8 and earlier via DLL hijacking/search path manipulation allows local attackers to run malicious code in user context without interaction. CVSS 8.6 severity stems from changed scope and high confidentiality/integrity/availability impact despite local attack vector. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS data not available for this recent CVE. Vendor patch released per Adobe Security Bulletin APSB26-36.

Command injection in OpenTelemetry Go SDK allows local attackers to execute arbitrary code by placing malicious `kenv` binary in PATH on BSD and Solaris systems. Vulnerability occurs during resource detection initialization when application resolves bare command name instead of absolute path. Affects DragonFly BSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Solaris platforms when `/etc/hostid` does not exist. Incomplete fix for prior CVE-2026-24051 left BSD/Solaris code path vulnerable to identical PATH hijacking attack.

Local privilege escalation in Checkmk allows site users with high privileges to escalate to root by manipulating site context files processed by the root-executed 'omd' administrative command. Affects Checkmk 2.2.0 (EOL), 2.3.0 before p46, 2.4.0 before p25, and 2.5.0 beta before b3. No public exploit identified at time of analysis. CVSS 9.3 reflects total technical impact, but SSVC assessment indicates non-automatable exploitation requiring existing high-privilege access, tempering the real-world urgency for organizations with strict site user access controls.
